Our systems

Built for your water,
not a brochure's.

These are our best sellers. We build for every Bay Area home, so if none of these fit yours we will size one that does. Standard installation is included with every system.

BEST SELLER
Lucid whole-home softener and filtration tank

SYSTEM 01

Whole-Home Standard

Softener and filtration in one tank. Catalytic carbon for chloramine, resin for hardness. The right call for most Bay Area homes.

Lucid dual tank system, separate resin and carbon tanks

SYSTEM 02

Dual Tank

Separate resin and carbon tanks instead of one shared bed. The carbon tank self-cleans and the resin never sees chloramine, so the whole system lasts longer.

Lucid salt-free conditioner and carbon filtration tanks

SYSTEM 03

Salt-Free + Carbon

Two tanks, no salt and no drain needed. Stops scale forming in your pipes and water heater, and takes chloramine out at every tap.

Lucid six-stage reverse osmosis drinking water system

ADD-ON

Reverse Osmosis

Six-stage drinking water system under the kitchen sink, with its own faucet. Installs on the same visit as any system above.

Why Lucid

Certified equipment. No pressure.

The same systems the in-home-sales companies install, without the two-hour pitch or the commissioned rep.

✔

NSF-Certified Components

Built with NSF-certified filter media and components, and pressure-tested before it ships.

◈

Pressure Tested

Every unit is pressure tested before it ships, and again after we install it.

◎

Professionally Installed

Installed in a single visit, usually 2–3 hours, water off for about 30 minutes.

FAQs

Answered up front.

How much does it cost?
It depends on your home. A larger house or an XL system costs more than a small one, so we size the system to your water and your household and give you a straight quote. What you won't pay for: a commissioned rep, a two-hour pitch, or a markup to cover either.
What's the warranty?
Tiered: lifetime on the tanks and dry parts, five years on the valve, board and media, one year on the RO, and 30 days on installation labor.
Do I even need a softener?
Maybe not for hardness. About half the Bay Area already has soft water, and we'll tell you straight if yours is one of them. But "not strictly necessary" isn't the same as "no benefit." Plenty of homeowners still want water softer than what the city delivers: better lather, spot-free glassware, less soap and detergent, and gentler water on skin, hair, and appliances. And soft or not, your drinking water still carries chlorine, trihalomethanes, and PFAS, which the reverse-osmosis system removes. Check your zip and we'll show you exactly what's worth it for your home, and what isn't.

The honest difference

Every number on this site comes from your city's own water reports.

Not a rep's test kit. Not a scare tactic. The hardness we show you is published by your utility, and you can click straight through to the source. Check your water first, then decide if you want a quote.
